This blog hosts information about, photographs of, and articles and other publications by William Z. Spiegelman (1893-1949), who was an important figure in Zionist politics and Jewish culture in Poland, the United States and Israel. He was, among other things, a writer, an editor, a biographer, a public relations specialist, and a translator.
"We have stony hearts toward the living and we erect monuments of stone to the dead. A living memorial is the only kind worthy of living beings, whether they are with us here or have gone Beyond. Better name after him the street in or near which he lived than to erect some obstruction in stone, for the one comes into our life and the other we pass by carelessly. But better set to work the noble ideas which he had and do, as far as we may and can, that which he longed to do. Thus he remains in our lives, the living factor that he was, and the memory of him does not become part of a tombstone or a static statue." -- William Z. Spiegelman.
